Authorities were called to the Summer Bay Resort on U.S. Highway 192 late Sunday where they found the building was making popping noises and windows were breaking.

"I was walking into the room and I head 'bang, bang, bang' and glass breaking," said resort guest Maggie Tamry. "And I ran back to the car and I told my family, we have three toddlers with us, 'Jump in the car, I have a bad feeling.' I thought someone was getting into an altercation."

Cuellar said the hole is in the middle of the villa and is about 40 to 50 feet in diameter. He says authorities think it's getting deeper but can't yet tell if it's growing outward.

The president of Summer Bay Resort Paul Caldwell said 48 units had to be evacuated, but that no injuries have been reported.

There are 900 units on the property. Displaced guests were moved to other units on site.

A geotechnical team has been called to the resort to assess the sinkhole.
